I love Wilde's short stories and novels. But this thing, I can't get to. It's lifeless, some are meh. It can be tiring. I can't finish it. Sorry, Wilde

Five enormous, glittering stars.
I do not believe that a person has existed who writes better than Oscar Wilde. My heart swoons over his prose, his rhythms, his imagery, the emotion, the story, his pure linguistic talent.

I always feel so full after reading Oscar's works. It's as though words were created just to be immortalised in the beauty that only Oscar can finesse. The last poem in this book was such sheer perfection and has gone straight to the top of my favourite poems of all time.

Again, the theme, the rhythm, the profundity, the imagery, his otherworldly wordsmithing makes this one to remember. It is so so long, and yet I didn't want it to end.

He deserves the title of the greatest author of all time, for no one can surpass his talent.

DNF.
I love Oscar Wilde's short stories but I really thought I would've liked his poetry as well, but unfortunately I don't. I'm not really sure why, but I just don't. Such a shame for me, but at least I know now to just read more of his stories! :)
